Quality Rating and Improvement System (QRIS) Program Manager Online Help and Resources

A Quality Rating and Improvement System (QRIS) is a method to assess, improve, and communicate the level of quality in early education and care and after-school settings. QRIS are similar to other consumer rating systems, in that they "rate" goods or services to provide customers with a better understanding about the quality of that item.
